Some aren’t doing their jobs though in “flattening the curve” infected numbers going up but deaths going down, means likely the younger crowd is getting sicker, numbers are going up but the deaths are lowering. Will that mean deaths go higher later as more folks with compromised health issues get exposed? It only works if you follow the rules. Staying at home without venturing into groups is going to get us back to where we need to be. The more people don’t understand that, the longer we have this problem. Re-Outbreaks are happening again. Not worth the risk.

Infected numbers going up just means more people are being tested. Since we know that most carriers aren’t sick it’s really a waste of time to worry about numbers of infected. More useful is the daily rate of death.

This won't be "over" until the vaccine is developed and generally available.

Or until enough people have been exposed and gained immunity.

True but there are those that are being reinfected. Rules out that immunity hasn’t been achieved yet.
